Every race has a ditry little secret they've covered up and you find the Beatmen often have had their land unfairly taken or were allies of them in the past.
    It's good to see that SE isn't making these MMO's where the races you play are the innocent little angels.

      About the Windurst story
      The Yagudo brought it upon themselves. Plus, they're not as much a victim as they want you to believe - even though they supposedly signed a peace treaty with Windurst, they continue to extort them by demanding more and more tributes each year, threatening to start a war again if they don't comply.

      It's true that the Tarutaru almost conquered the world though. San d'Oria was the second to try that, after they learned magic from the Tarutaru.

        Yeah Armondo I sort feel Yags and taru are equally bad in their own ways. I'm not saying Yags are totally innocent.

          Did Taru almost rule the world cause their magic??

            Yes. From what I've heard, it happened twice, too.

              To Armando and Pwngraphic:

              I've had as a project a summary and database on game lore for my fellow rpers and this is all I scrapped together for Windy history.

              I'm still collecting info on some things so its as complete as I've found.

                  Didn't Elmer end up translating heaps of official books that were released about Vana'diel?

                    Most of that info has been scattered about online in FFwiki, FFXIwiki and this one website called history of Vanadiel. I had yet to find posts consoldating things for easy research which is what I've been trying to do.

                    I'm almost done with the race and history sections pretty much. I just need to finish Galka information and fill in some of the stuff from the nation missions rank 6-10 which I'll probably have to wait until I complete them to get. The biggest hurdle I think will be on the origns of the jobs a lot of which is in the AF quests 2 of which I've completed already (RDM and DRG) and don't have videos or transcripts of.

                      Do you happen to have the stories of each city? Maybe I can wiki them?


                      Edit: I just saw your post above mine.. I'll wiki these.

                          He did have a section on the Blue Gartr forums, but I can't seem to find it anymore.

                          However, he has put up a section on his website: JPButton » Final Fantasy XI History

                                To be honest, I didn't pay attention to the story. I was too focused on Leveling.
